I did it, y'all. I finally managed to squeeze in a normal workout (for me) and it felt great! My body is sore and my head hurts a little, but I haven't felt this good in quite some time. I'm not exactly on track with regards to my diet goals yet, but I'll provide a quick breakdown of the food/meals I ate today anyways. As promised [...]

Life can get busy. It can stay busy, too, which is why meditation is so crucial for our sanity. Feel free to disagree, but hear me out first.
